It was the power of the gun that killed Trayvon Martin according to legendary comedian Bill Cosby.
STORY: What In The?!? Road Sign Calls Trayvon Martin A Ni**er!
During a recent interview with the Washington Times, the comedic icon and a Navy veteran, said “the gun” empowered neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman to kill Trayvon on the night of February 26th in Sanford, Fl.
Cosby to the Times:
“We’ve got to get the gun out of the hands of people who are supposed to be on neighborhood watch.
Without a gun, I don’t see Mr. Zimmerman approaching Trayvon by himself. The power-of-the-gun mentality had him unafraid to confront someone.
Even police call for backup in similar situations.
When you carry a gun, you mean to harm somebody, kill somebody.”
17-year-old Trayvon was shot and killed by neighborhood watchman, 28-year-old George Zimmerman. Trayvon was returning from a local 7-Eleven after buying a bag of Skittles and iced tea.
He was then spotted by Zimmerman while returning to his father’s girlfriend’s home inside their gated community. Zimmerman called 911, explaining that Trayvon, who was wearing a hoodie at the time, a pair of blue jeans, and red/white sneakers, looked suspicious.
Zimmerman pursued Trayvon even after he was told not to by the 911 dispatcher.
When Zimmerman approached Trayvon, the two got into a scuffle, resulting in Trayvon taking a bullet to the chest at point blank range.
Zimmerman claimed that he shot Trayvon on grounds of self-defense, although Trayvon was unarmed.
Since the murder of Trayvon, the entire nation has expressed outrage.
George Zimmerman has not been arrested yet as more evidence comes forward proving that his claims of self-defense were false.
